ALTERNATIVE TO THE WESTERN WORLD

Dr. Binod Singh

ABSTRACT

With the end of Western era, the ideological dominance of the West is under challenge. The new breed of intellectuals are rooted in their own tradition and yet not antagonistic to the logic of universalization of categories. China , after having arrived at the world stage as the economic power house, is striving to build an alternative to the Western world order based on Confucian tradition. The paper reviews the current Chinese domestic political situation and attempts to predict its impact on the emergence of China as an alternative to the Western World order.
